Stackable Layer 3 Switch

The Brocade FastIron 624S is a managed, stackable Layer 3 switch built for enterprise campus networks. It delivers 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports plus two stacking ports running at 16 Gbps each. The 1U form factor helps reduce infrastructure and administrative costs. A power supply and a .5 m stacking cable are included.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

Network teams needing a managed, stackable core with Layer 3 routing for campus edge deployments will find this model appropriate. Buyers who require 10 GbE uplinks, PoE support or a higher port count should consider other platforms. Environments limited to unmanaged switching or desktop form factors will not match this feature set.

Deciding specification: 24 Gigabit ports

The combination of 24 10/100/1000 Mbps ports and dual 16 Gbps stacking links determines whether this switch fits the design. Stackable operation allows multiple units to behave as a single logical device. If the topology demands more access ports or faster uplinks, a different switch is required.

Questions about this item

How often will the 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports and two 16 Gbps stacking ports need cleaning or replacement under normal operation?

The ports are solid-state interfaces with no moving parts; routine maintenance is limited to keeping the ventilation slots clear of dust so that internal fans can cool the switch.

What limit appears first when the switch runs at full 10/100/1000 Mbps throughput on all 24 ports continuously?

The 16 Gbps stacking links become the bottleneck before the front-panel ports saturate, so aggregated traffic that must cross the stack will hit that ceiling first.

How much heat and fan noise does the 8.82 lb chassis produce when powered by the included RPS13 supply all day?

The single RPS13 power supply feeds a 1U stackable chassis designed for quiet rack operation; typical office ambient temperatures stay within spec without supplemental cooling.
